Burglary suspect arrested after high speed chase near Fleming

Jeremy Kaye charged with theft, eluding

A 19-year-old man faces charges of burglary, theft and vehicular eluding after an incident Friday in the Fleming area.

At around 7 p.m. Aug. 25, LCSO deputies were called to a burglary in progress on County Road 81 near Fleming, according to a release from the sheriff's office. The victim of the burglary described a white vehicle leaving the scene of the crime to dispatchers.

A deputy responding to the scene spotted a vehicle matching the description near C.R. 79 and C.R. 14 and attempted to get the vehicle to stop. A pursuit ensued, with the suspect vehicle traveling over 100 mph on county roads and into Fleming. There, deputies lost sight of the vehicle, but residents contacted the law enforcement officers after spotting a white vehicle stopped in an alley. According to the LCSO, the occupants of the vehicle fled on foot.

The investigation led to the arrest of Jeremy M. Kaye on Saturday. Kaye was charged with two felonies, vehicular eluding and second degree burglary, as well as misdemeanor trespassing and petty theft. No information was available about the item or items allegedly stolen, but the LCSO reported the value at between $50 and $300.

Kaye was held at the Logan County Detention Center without bond until he could be advised by a judge.
